Invoke Democracy Now – a New Group Inspiring Wider Public Discussion of Brexit and Democracy
Post-Brexit campaigning group set up to inspire wider public discussion of Brexit and democracy and to call on the government to uphold the vote.
London, United Kingdom, July 14, 2016 --(PR.com)-- A new group, Invoke Democracy Now, has been set up to inspire people to hold public discussions on the key issues raised by Britain’s vote to leave the EU. The group’s work is particularly focused on the impact of the vote on our democratic processes.
Invoke Democracy Now aims to bring together people from a wide range of personal and political backgrounds to discuss these issues – people from Leave and Remain, from left and right. The group’s initiators wish to see Article 50 invoked promptly and intend to share their views through public meetings. But – in keeping with the spirit of democracy – the group is also adamant these meetings should be open to contributions from a wide range of speakers and contributions from the floor.
The group’s first meeting will take place at 7pm on Thursday 14th July 2016 at the Rich Mix arts venue in Bethnal Green: Rich Mix 35 - 47 Bethnal Green Road London E1 6LA
Tickets are £3 for students (with ID card) and £5 full price.
